Grant,

I would like to give it a trial.

If it is possible make up 2 batch's of beef heart mix, 1 with wheat grass powder and one with out.

feed for several weeks and see if there is any behaviour and colour changes with the fish fed with the wheat grass powder.

Cheers
Ben

I would love to give it a trial, but I have sold off my discus (in preparation for a new tank), so I will conduct that experiment in about 1 months time or so.
